Description:
Chinese SKS Type 56 Semi-Auto Rifle – 7.62x39 (Factory 306, Circa Late 1970s) | Matching Numbers w/ Bayonet
Manufacturer: Chinese State Arsenal — Factory 306
Model: SKS
Caliber: 7.62x39mm
Serial Number: 23015101
Year of Manufacture: Circa late 1970s (estimated via standard Chinese SKS serial dating conventions; exact factory records were never published by Chinese manufacturers)
Barrel Length: 20 inches
Overall Length (Collapsed/Stowed): 40 inches

Bayonet: Included — integral folding spike/blade-type bayonet, standard to the Type 56 pattern
Condition: Very Good
This Chinese Type 56 SKS presents in very good condition with matching serial numbers throughout — a detail collectors specifically look for, as many surplus imports were mixed-and-matched during arsenal refurbishment. Wood shows light, honest handling wear consistent with age; metal retains strong original finish. Action cycles smoothly. Comes complete with its folding bayonet.
About this rifle: Produced at Chinese State Factory 306, this Type 56 SKS carries the same rugged, dependable long-stroke gas action that made the design famous worldwide. Adopted by China in 1956 as a license-built variant of the Soviet SKS, the Type 56 served as a frontline and second-line Chinese military rifle for decades before transitioning to a favorite among American collectors and shooters. Matching-number examples like this one, complete with bayonet, are increasingly hard to find in this condition.
Photo Disclaimer
Photos are taken under intense, high-definition lighting to give buyers the clearest possible view of the firearm's true condition. This lighting can occasionally make minor blemishes — small scuffs, finish wear, or surface marks — appear more pronounced than they are in hand. Please call us with any questions about the condition or severity of a specific blemish before or purchasing — we're happy to give you a direct, honest assessment.
